Reds' Rally Topples Braves; Belinsky Handcuffs Yankees For LA Angels Sanford Pitches Giants To Win By FRED DOWN UPI Sporl Writer Jerry Lynch, baseball's highest priced pinch hitler, operates on tlie theory of all or nothing at all. That's the way he dickers at contract time and that s the man ner he coos up to hit when Man agcr Fred Hutchinson tells him lo gran a nai. Always looking to rip one downtown," Lynch did Wednesday night when he blasted the 13th pinch homer ot his career to power the Cincinnati Reds to a come-from-behind 4-3 victory over the Milwaukee Braves. The greying 32-ycar-old Lynch, who draws an estimated salary of $25,000 a vcar, now needs only one more pinch homer to tie the major league record ot 14 held by ueorge Crowe, . Hns Two lilts Lynch's homer off loser Lew Burdette with rookie Tom Harper on base in the seventh inning - was only his second hit of the season in 10- limes up. His only other hit also was a pincH homer that helped the Hods beat the San Francisco Giants, 7-4, on April 22. Southpaw Jim O'Toolc was the beneficiary of both blows, being the winner in the game against the Giants and again in Wednes day night's contest. O'Toolc, now 5-1, gave up nine hits to the Braves before Lynch hit for him in the seventh. Al Worthington then wrapped It up by retiring the las, six batters in order. San Francisco snapped Pitts burgh's four-game winning streak, 5-1, and the Chicago Cubs came out of their batting slump with a 17-hit 13-8 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals. Rain washed out the game be tween the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Philadelphia Phillies and also postponed the Houston Colts New York Mcts game with the Colts-leading, 1-0, after three in nings. In the American League, the Kansas City A's crushed the Cleve land Indians, 11-3, The Washing ton Senators downed the Detroit Tigers, 4-1, the Boston Red Sox drubbed the Minnesota Twins, 14 S.ulhe Chicago White Sox swept a twin-bill from tho Baltimore Or ioles, 7-0 and 6-4, and the Los Angeles Angels defeated the New York Yankees, 5-3. Jack Sanford posted his fourth victory of the season for the Gi ants with a seven-hitter over the t'iratcs. Bob Friend, victim of a three-run rally in the fourth, suf fcred his first loss after three vie lories. Willie McCovcy drove in two runs with three of the Giants 12 hits. Ernie Banks blasted twn three. run homers and drove in seven runs in all as the Cubs ended the Cardinals' four-game winning streak with a 17-hit barrage. Horn ers accounted for II of the Cubs' 13 runs, with Nellie Mathews, Dick Bertcll and Kenny Hubbs reaching the scats as well as Banks. Jim Brewer, fifth of six Cub pitchers, was credited with the victory while Harry Fanok was the loser. SIGN EAf.I.E DAY CALGARY. Alia.

With 76 gold medals already accumulated, Uncle Sam's ath letes arc a good bet to equal or surpass the Pan American record of 120 gold medals won at Chi-: tago four years ago. Holds Team Lead The United States is favored tol 'start off the day by taking twol gold medals in the pentathlon, can add more in the individual sabre fencing finals this after noon and then figures to cap the day with a victory over Mexico; its next-to-last game in me basketball tournament. A U.S. basketball victory tonight will set up a "gold medal game" with Brazil, which also is unbeaten in the tournament. The U.S. goes into today's fifth and final event of the pentathlon the 4,000-meter cross country run holding the team lead and running one-two in the individual competition. At the end of four events, the U.S. team held the lead with 10,926.76 point! followed by Bra zil with 10,207.64 and Mexico with 10,140.32. In the individual stand ings, Richard Sloll of Ft. Sam: Houston. Tex., was first with 3,783.30 points with Robert Beck of Boston second with 3,607.52. Jose Wilson of Brazil, who set a world pentathlon record in the 300-meter swimming Wednesday was third with 3.605.88 points and Jim Moore of Ft. Sam Houston was fourth with 3.445.88. Score Memorable Triumphs The three U.S. entries are at their best in the cross country and some experts aro predicting1 1-2-3 U.S. (inish in today's race. The U.S. scored two of its most memorable triumphs of these fourth annual Pan American Games Wednesday when Pete McArdlc of New York won the 10.000-meter run and John D. Martin of Norman, Okla., rallied despite a painful groin injury to win the decathlon. The U.S. also scored victories Wednesday in the women's 200 meter dash, fencing, yachting and gymnastics, making a total of eight gold medals or the day. McArdlc. a 34-ycar old, 125- pound bus mechanic who looks like he couldn't run 10 feet with out gasping for breath, had a crowd of 9.000 roaring for him as1 he won the 10,000-mcter with a lime of 29:52.1 that wiped out the Pan Am mark of .10:17.2 set by Argentina's Oswaldn Suarcz in 1959. Suarcz. quite naturally, was Hie favorite to win Wednesday's race but Die balding, spindly-legged McArdlc moved off the mark al a steady pace and just kept right on going. The fans, who had come to cheer Suarcz, wound up yelling for "old lady" as he swept across the finish line 250 yards ahead of the Argentine ace. Rest Two Days He'll rest for 48 hours and then compete in another event Satur Iday the marathon. Martin, a 6-foot, 4-inch, 200- pound teaclier and former holder of the world pole vault record, won three of Wednesday's final five events in the decathlon to take the gold medal that earns him recognition as the best all around athlcle of the games. Martin, in last place after Tuesday's first two events, woni the 110-meter hurdles, the discuss throw and the pole vault in suc cession and then finished third in the javelin and the 1500-metcr run to finish with a Pan Am rec- lord of 7,335 points. The crucial event was the pole vault in which Martin soared 14 feet. 117k inches lo collect 1,122 points in one package. His 10- jevent point total broke the mark of 7,254 set by Dave Edstrom of I the U.S. in 1959. em oaironor ot Canada was! second with 6,812 points, Hector Martinez of Venezuela was third was 6,751 and Russ Hodge of Itos- toe. N.Y., was fourth with 6.333. Vivian Brown Wins Vivian Brown of Cleveland won the 200-mcter women's run in 23.9 seconds: Army Pvt. Michael Dc saro of Brooklyn led a 1-2-3 American medal sweep in men's individual sabers, and Doris Fuchs of Rochester. N.Y., paced the U.S. to two gold medals in gymnastics. Miss Buchs won thc individual all-around gymnastics lovont with 77.21 points and thus led the U.S. team to the title with 3R3.18 points with Canada second at 375.67 and Cuba third at 345.87, The U.S. picked up its seventh and eighth gold medals of the day-long competition when yacht-i ing judges, Iiguring out compel! tion that ended Tuesday, an nounccd victories in the lichtnine mm star classes.

(UPD -The closest guarded secrets at Church II Downs today were the battle plans mapped out by trainers for Saturday's running of the $125,000 added Kentucky Derby. The trainers will talk of their hopes and fears, the condition of their horses, how the animals can handle muddy or fast tracks and the trials and tribulations en-! countered in getting the horses to the post for America's greatest horse race. But you couldn't torture out of litem the instructions they intend to give the jockeys in the pad dock prior to the 89th running ol the Kentucky Derby. Are you going to let him run in front, come from behind or what?" innocently asked one re porter of Woody Stephens, who trains Cain Hoy Stable's Never Bend. Stephens just grinned. Then he said, "I wouldn't even tell that to mv wife." Past Races Sel Pattern The pattern of racing to be expected of starters in the prob able field of nine, with the pos sibility that a tenth will join them when the entries close today, is indicated by past races. Thus Grecntree Stable's No Rob bery, which never has been worse i than second at any stage of its I races and usually goes to the front al the start, is most likely to set the pace in the Kentucky Derby., That was the wav Grecntree Stable's son of Swaps won the oot .Memorial two weeks ago (or his li((h victory without defeat. Trainer John Caver, however. insists that No Robbery does not have to go to the front at the ktart. This horse can he rated." he said. "But of course 1 wouldn't want tho jockey to fight him it lie insists on having his own way," he added. Ni Robbery, wearing blinkers to keep him from running wide on the turns, also will be equipped with a special bit designed to hold down his tongue. Hates Tongue Straps I hate tongue straps, " said the man who saddled Shut Out for bis Kentucky Dcrhv victory in l'M2. "K a hmse will stand for this equipment I prefer to use it." Other starters with a hich turn of T.pccd include favored Candy Spots. Never Bend, Ron jour, Cha teaugay and Gray Pet. They can lie expected to be close to the taee-niaker. On the other hand. On My Hon and Royal Tower strictly are si retch-runners. Tims far this year Investor has not nin very much at anv stage of his races, while Book Full, the possible runner, went to the front early in the only race he won in. four starts. file best laid riding plans, how ever, often go astray and the1 jockeys are on their own once a race is under way. Willie Shoemaker, who won the Kentucky Derby in 1955 with Swaps and in 1959 with Tomy Lee, rides Candy Spots, unbeaten in six races. But Shoemaker also pulled one of the biggest boners in sports when he misjudged the finish line in 1937 while ridine uaiiaiu Man and was nosed out by Iron Liege. Ycaza on Never Bend Manny Ycaza. one of the most talented of current jockeys, rides Never Bend, while Johnny Rotz, who has won just about all the stakes in New York this season, rides No Robbery. Neither ever has won the Kentucky Derby. The banana plant is not a tree. It is actually a giant herb. Nlcklaus, Palmer Favorites By HAL WOOD UPI Sports Writer LAS VEGAS, Nev.

The irrepressible 26-year-old southpaw not only defeated the Yankees for the first time in his hectic career but also won his first game of the season by pitch ing the Los Angeles Angels to a 5-3 victory. Maybe you think ol Bo wasn t happy in the clubhouse. He was so elated he wanted to buy cham pagne for the gang. Belinsky, who had lost his lirst three games, really had it Wednesday night. He held the Yankees hitless un til Roger Maris singled with one out in the sixth, then pitched his way out of a ninth inning jam by getting pinch hitter Jack Reed on a grounder for the final out. Allows Fpur Hits Bo allowed only four hits struck out nine and was staked to a quick lead when George Thomas clipped loser Ralph Ter ry for a grand-slam homer in the first ining. Driven to Jhc showers that 29-minute first inning Terry suffered his second loss against three victories.

Ron Hansen had a triple, double and a single during the twi-night-er; Pete Ward drove in two runs in the opener and another in the nightcap, and Dave Nicholson collected four hits. Wilhelm lim ited Baltimore to one hit over the last 2 2-3 innings of the finale. 16-Ilit Onslaught Ed Bressoud and Chuck Schil ling each homered in the Red Sox' 16-hit onslaught against the Twins.
